Genes affected
RERE (HGNC:9965): (arginine-glutamic acid dipeptide repeats) This gene encodes a member of the atrophin family of arginine-glutamic acid (RE) dipeptide repeat-containing proteins. The encoded protein co-localizes with a transcription factor in the nucleus, and its overexpression triggers apoptosis. A similar protein in mouse associates with histone deacetylase and is thought to function as a transcriptional co-repressor during embryonic development. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 10 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 3 uncertain in NM_001042681.2
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP
PP5
Variant 1-8358216-TGGTGGA-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-8358216-TGGTGGA-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2580782.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP3
Nonframeshift variant in repetitive region in NM_001042681.2
